Ensure present on file resource

file { '/etc/sudoers':
  ensure => present,
}

What you should have done

file { '/etc/sudoers':
  ensure => file,
}

Disabling the check

To disable this check, you can add --no-file_ensure-check to your puppet-lint command line.

$ puppet-lint --no-file_ensure-check path/to/file.pp

PuppetLint.configuration.send('disable_file_ensure')
